It was a Princes Trust concert and they played the whole of Quadrophenia and I had no voice afterwards.

A sign of a good concert.

I think my most memorable one is my first Janet concert as we were so close to her. Michael was good though as well.

I think my most memorable concert was seeing Linkin Park at the Astoria in London just a few weeks ago - absolutely amazing!!! :guitarist

Uncle Kram · Post by **Uncle Kram** » Thu Jun 14, 2007 12:56 pm

I reckon I've been to over 300 gigs, and yes, I did pay for SOME of them

Most memorable:

Van Halen, Bad Company (including a walk-on by Led Zeppelin) at the wonderful Birmingham Odeon.

Joni Mitchell, Eric Clapton, Muse & Prince at the NEC.

Bruce Springsteen in Milan.

Can't choose just one. This list would be a lot longer as it is.

Mine would be Indigenous when they played in Parker, Arizona.

They were playing right on the river on a gorgeous bright sunny day with the perfect amount of breeze. I sat on the grass for most of the concert and just marinated in my own thoughts. I was relaxed, unstressed, happy and really excited to see them. They were still pretty new then and I felt like I was in on something a lot of other people weren't.

Toward the end of the show, I went down to the left front of the stage and stood right beneath Mato Nanji while he played. I was to him. Speaker blew out my ear but hey! I was close to Mato! :rolleyes:

That was a really good day for me.

Whilst I loved concerts like Led Zep at the Earl's Court and The Who at Granby Halls I have to say that the best concert I've ever been to was Dave Swarbrick at a little pub in Dalston.

Swarb, as always, was magnificent but the immediacy of thirty people sitting round chatting with him between numbers was unforgettable.
